In this post I'll show step by step how to draw the face of a girl in her early teens anime style.
- It is easy to say "Today I'll be an artist!" but from words to facts there's a long distance. But let's not get disappointed by that, instead let's keep that determined attitude to acquire the skill first.
- This may seem a little to complicated given that it is a whole face that I'll be drawing, but fear not and let's get started.
- First what you'll need:
- -Pencil No. 2 (a regular one is okay, no need to get too pro)
- -Mechanic pencil 0.7
- -Pens sizes 3, 4, and 6
- -Bread eraser (it is really soft but when it comes to erasing it is just the best)+
- -Regular white eraser
- 1. Draw a circle
2. Draw lines
- 3. Draw jaw line and top of head
- 4. Draw three circles to measure distance between each eye
- 5. Draw ears and brows
- 6. Trace hairline
- 7. With pen 0.3 trace eyebrows, jawline, nose, lips, and ears.
- 8. Draw details in the eyes
- 9. With pen 0.3 retrace details on eye adding light reflections
- 10. With pencil draw hair (I decided to add a ribbon on her head as a detail)
- 11. Retrace added details with pen 0.3
- 12. Erase all lines with the bread and regular erasers
- Final step (I know, finally.) Draw the neck line and shoulders, and always retrace with pen 0.3 although I must add that if you do it with pen 0.4 there won't be much of a difference.
- If you want to see the rest of this tutorial drop by again next week. In which the detail in the eyes will be added and inked in. Until then see you next time. Thank you for reading this far, and I hope you learned something.
